104 pp; 16mo; marbled brown calf; spine lettered & decorated in gilt; black leather spine label. Front board nearly detached; loss of half-inch piece of leather top of spine; corners bumped and rubbed. Appears to be lacking front endpaper(s), as title page is facing front pastedown. Ownership name in pen top ot title page: Lyman H. Warren, Oneida Col, N. Y.; another (previous owner?) name or initials shaded out in pencil.

For someone with time by the fire, and a glass: the front pastedown and rear endpapers contain 9 stanzas of verse in faint pencil, more or less appears to be a plaintive love poem, followed on the last blank by notes in latin, and one more poem on the rear paste-down.
